- A trip to Rincon Argentino Kendall is the perfect opportunity to indulge in some serious feasting - including sampling some of Argentina's legendary steaks. Argentinean people have a reputation for their love of food, it's no surprise our social gatherings are centered on sharing a meal.

Most regions in Argentina are known for homemade delicacies including milanesas, (breaded meat), gnocchi, and empanadas. Our culinary atmosphere is the perfect environment to celebrate a special occasion, casually meet friends for lunch/dinner, or simply indulge in a fine wine. We enjoy making others feel at home, and we believe that food genuinely brings people together. This is the style of Rincon Argentino Kendall. With our restaurant, we bring a piece of our native country, Argentina, to South Florida. Our goal is to offer quality food at reasonable prices in a charming, warm and homey atmosphere. Dining at Rincon Argentino Kendall is like eating at home with your family and friends. Rincon Argentino Kendall opened in 2001.

They give like 2 different types of chimichurri to put on your steak which are magnificent as well. The place is nice and cozy. Just perfect! Will be returning very soon!!

Camp Pendleton Marine posthumously awarded Bronze Star
It was an emotional day for the family of a Camp Pendleton Marine posthumously awarded a Bronze Star for bravery in battle.
Jeebsie: Tow liars, no waiting...one lies bold faced to the 40 million people about his affairs, rapes and is almost impeached. The other a proven backstabbing lair who ruined other womens lives and never was e under sniper fire in Bosnia...pathetic liar. If this is who you voting for just kill yourself and do the country a favor. If you dont like trump , look at the third party candidate but we cannot allow the clinton criminal enterprise to occupy the white house again.

Consolidation and cost-cutting are USPS 2013 resolutions
The Postal Service will undertake cost saving measures and service changes in 2013 to increase available revenue, says Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe.In his State of the Postal Service presentation, Donahoe said on Jan. 24 the service remains "in a very tenuous position as far as cash on hand" because Congress has not passed legislation to aid the Postal Service.
25,000 USPS employees take buyout offers so far
More than 25,000 employees have accepted an early-retirement offer from the United States Postal Service, part of the agency's attempts to cut its workforce and costs, said a spokesperson for the American Postal Workers Union. The Postal Service finished fiscal 2012 with a $15.9 billion loss.

4.5 stars 5 totalReview Jan Gossing
Posted by kelly kortman
I began working with Jan over a year ago based on a referral from my other attorney John Eltringham, another fantastic attorney. Jan has helped me in dealing with a random IRS audit but has also now been engaged to put together my tax returns and has also helped in a few other areas to include the establishment of an LLC and a dispute with an irresponsible house sitter. Jan is always very easy to get a hold of and responds to emails, calls and texts in a timely manner. He is wise beyond his years and a think outside the box type of guy who is able to create positive solutions and outcomes for complex situations. He is well versed in his craft and charges very reasonable fees for his time relative to his expertise. All in all a fine attorney to work with.
Posted by Jeremy
My wife and I were represented by Jan G.
He is a nice man, he walked us through every option we had, was very friendly and personable, and a true professional. Even after our case was closed, he continued to answer my silly questions. His fees were very reasonable, and I recommend him to anyone who is in need of a great lawyer.
Posted by a client
jan was great at first but not only did he stand me up for our second appointment, he ignores emails. He has no secretary and claims to be high tech enough to avoid needing one, however that means that he has no time to filter calls and emails and i went weeks without hearing from him and he had no follow through and doing what he said he would. Nice guy, bad practice. Would no recommend.
Posted by Jim
Jan has handled many tax issues for us personally and for our business. He is always just a phone call away and his advice is spot on. He re-structured our business so that we save money on taxes. He has become a trusted business adviser.
Posted by Jennifer
I hired BTA to file my Chapter 7 bankruptcy. I always was able to speak to an attorney not just a paralegal. Brian took the time to listen to my problems and were able to address all my questions. The free consultation was really free and they gave me a fair (and cheaper) price than I was quoted from other attorneys.

Staying here puts you right in the heart of South beach. Walking distance to the beach, wet willies and everything else. The boutique hotel was just inviting us to stay and relax. We were given champagne upon check in and the staff was great. The rooms are adult oriented and sexy. We decided to start our day off with lunch in there restaurant and I must say the food was delicious. We had the truffle pizza, grilled octopus and the Salmon tartare. We decided to explore the rest of the hotel and found the rooftop pool and bar. We had checked in only 2 hrs ago and already found our little oasis on the beach. It was a great beginning to our trip. If you want adult contemporary and first hand service, just stay here.

Sitting quietly in a circle, peering up with admiration, a class of young Southside Elementary students listens eagerly to Collins' senior Sarah Donnell read them a book, their attentive silence breaking only on occasion to laugh at her funny sound effects and gestures.
A local youth is making big strides for the Hispanic community and her work has recently earned her an impressive recognition.
Ivonne Gonzales, an Eastern Kentucky University sophomore, has been honored with the University's Martin Luther King Jr. Student Leadership Award for her efforts to educate others about, and promote the inclusion of, Hispanic culture.
Though it's no longer required by the state, Shelby County Public Schools rolled out its plan Thursday to integrate handwriting lessons into classroom curriculums for the coming year.
A familiar face will fill the role of principal at East Middle School, a position recently left vacant following Rebecca Martin's move to central office.
The school's Site Based Decision Making (SBDM) council announced Jennifer Cox as its selection late last week.
Though she is returning to the district after serving as a Goal Clarity Coach in Jefferson County, she is no stranger to the district.
Shelby County Public Schools announced this week its participation in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) program, a provision from the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 that allows schools and local educational agencies (LEAs) with high poverty rates to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students.
Cindy Murphy, school nutrition food service coordinator, said the provision is a big step toward battling adolescent hunger in the county. Shelby County will participate at the elementary and preschool levels this up coming school year.
The Shelby County Board of Education will meet with a light agenda Thursday at Central Office, 1155 West Main Street. The board will host a Diploma Recovery Graduation ceremony and consider the approval of an Eagle Scout Project.
Also at the meeting, the board will:
· Consider approval of revised BG-1 for the Shelby County High Gym Sound System and Technology Upgrade project.
When the Shelby County Board of Education convenes Thursday at the district offices, 1155 West Main Street, at 7 p.m., they will discuss the highly debated topic of cursive handwriting. During a previous meeting, board member Joanna Freels noted the value of teaching the writing style and said she wanted to discuss the matter further.
The Shelby County Board of Education quietly approved the 2016-17 Tentative Budget at Thursday's regular meeting.
This is the second step in the budgeting process and included the budget committee recommendations the board approved in April. Susan Barkley, the district's director of finance said the Tentative Budget includes more information than Draft Budget, which was first received in January, and offered no major surprises.
Just days before Shelby County and Collins high schools hosted graduation ceremonies, one student in the district proudly adorned himself in a navy blue cap and gown and held his head high as marched through a small crowd to receive his high school diploma.
The small piece of paper arrived a little later than 19-year-old Skyler Woods would have liked but he said it's an honor he is grateful to finally receive.
After more than a year of searching, the Collins High School Site-Based Decision-Making Council has selected Joseph Ellison III to take over as principal on July 1.
Mike Clark, the former director of student services for the district, served as interim principal for the 2015-16 school year while awaiting their decision.
Superintendent James Neihof shared his approval of the SBDM Council's selection.

Bodhi Linux 3.2 Promises Clearer Path to EnlightenmentSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Wednesday 27th of April 2016 12:03:24 AM Filed under
Bodhi Linux is elegant and lightweight. It is based on Ubuntu but runs only the forked E17 desktop. It is a very handy distro for those who like the idea of designing their own customized desktop look and feel. You literally have no bloat because you only add what you want to use.
Despite the kudos for Bodhi's configurability, the relatively young desktop environment is devoid of much of the eye candy and animated niceties found in heavier-weight desktops such as Cinnamon and KDE. This is by design and is not a shortcoming. Bodhi is first and foremost true to its minimalistic philosophy.
Bodhi is very easy to use. It has a low learning curve; new Linux users can get acquainted right away. A Quick Start wiki automatically loads on first run.
You can install Bodhi as a dual boot on a Chromebook.
Magic happens with the Ubuntu tabletSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Tuesday 26th of April 2016 05:41:06 PM Filed under
If you're looking for a tablet that will allow you to get your work done, one that won't break your bank (the M10 currently runs for around $260.00 USD - purchase here), and one that can serve nearly all your needs (from mobile to desktop), the Ubuntu Tablet has you covered. Once Ubuntu Touch matures, this device will be a game changer...of that there is no doubt.
Canonical, I am seriously impressed.

Kali Linux 2016.1Submitted by Roy Schestowitz on Monday 25th of April 2016 07:51:15 AM Filed under
Kali Linux Kali Linux, which was formally known as BackTrack, is a forensic and security-focused distribution based on Debian's Testing branch. Kali Linux is designed with penetration testing, data recovery and threat detection in mind. The project switched over to a rolling release model earlier this year in an effort to provide more up to date security utilities to the distribution's users.
I have been finding a lot of posts about Kali Linux from Linux newcomers on various forums and social media recently and this surprised me. Kali Linux is not marketed toward novice users, in fact the distribution has a fairly narrow focus (security, forensics and penetration testing) so I was eager to experiment with the distribution and see if I could find out why so many newcomers to Linux have been installing Kali as their first GNU/Linux distribution.
Kali Linux is available in two editions, with each edition available in 32-bit and 64-bit x86 builds. The main (or full) edition ships with the GNOME desktop and a large suite of security tools. The Light edition features fewer tools and the Xfce desktop. There is also an ARM port of Kali Linux. The 64-bit build of the main edition is 2.7GB in size and this is the ISO I downloaded for the purposes of my trial.
Ubuntu 16.04 Brings More Privacy and Big Changes to the DesktopSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Monday 25th of April 2016 07:08:53 AM Filed under
The release of Ubuntu 16.04 last week is good news for computer users who are upset over the recent development of Microsoft turning Windows into an operating system that is essentially spyware. As an open-source Linux distribution, Ubuntu is a great operating system for users concerned about privacy.
This marks the 24th release of the Ubuntu operating system, which has become perhaps the most popular Linux distribution in the world. Ubuntu 16.04 — codenamed Xenial Xerus — is also the sixth Long Term Support (LTS) release, meaning it will receive free security updates and support for five years. Canonical — the UK software company which sponsors Ubuntu — has continued to show its commitment to providing a solid, smooth, reliable, open-source operating system for the desktop even while working toward convergence of the desktop, phone, and tablet into one seamless operating system.

Aquaris M10 HD Ubuntu Edition reviewSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Saturday 23rd of April 2016 04:06:59 PM Filed under
A few months ago when the Aquaris M10 with Ubuntu was announced I was very excited. First of all the first device with convergence, a dream of Canonical even before Microsoft told a word about "one (scaled down) Windows". But also the first (commercial) tablet with the Linux kernel. And of course an ARM chip! We all know what happened to WinRT, but there is one difference here. It's ubuntu. They have the source of 99% of the packages people use + they have official ports to ARM already available! (I even use those to host this blog) So with XMir it is able to run all those apps.
Also: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)
PCLOS 2016.03 KDE: good jobSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 21st of April 2016 01:32:01 AM Filed under
I must admit that this time I had a much nicer experience with PC Linux OS than I had the previous time.
I could not find any issue to note during my Live run of this operating system apart from escessive number of applications.
Good job, PCLOS team! Let's hope you'll keep up with all you've done!
Raspberry Pi 3 review: The revolutionary $35 mini-PC cures its biggest headachesSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Wednesday 20th of April 2016 09:33:29 AM Filed under
At first blush, the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B appears physically identical to the year-old Raspberry Pi 2 Model B: the same port selection, the same GPIO pin layout, the same basic board layout, et cetera. But don't let that fool you! The leap to the Raspberry Pi 3 is just as significant as the prior upgrade, supercharging performance even further and eliminating what few lingering setup hassles remained in the Raspberry Pi formula, all while maintaining the same dirt-cheap $35 price point.

Understanding genetic factors that contribute to racial differences in cancer outcomes may reduce racial disparities in cancer morbidity and mortality. Achieving this goal will be limited by low rates of African American participation in cancer genetics research (CGR).
We conducted a qualitative study with African American adults (n=91) to understand attitudes about participating in CGR and to identify factors that are considered when making a decision about participating in this type of research.
Participants would consider the potential benefits to themselves, family members, and their community when making a decision to participate in CGR. However, concerns about exploitation, distrust of researchers, and investigators' motives were also important to participation decisions. Individuals would also consider who has access to their personal information and what would happen to these data. Side effects, logistical issues, and the potential to gain knowledge about health issues were also described as important factors in decision-making.
African Americans may consider a number of ethical, legal, and social issues when making a decision to participate in CGR. These issues should be addressed as part of recruitment efforts.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the US that disproportionately affects African Americans in terms of morbidity and mortality.1 Since all forms of cancer involve genetic changes that are either inherited or somatic, the molecular basis of cancer is a focus of ongoing research.2–5 Studies are now being conducted to develop a better understanding of genetic factors that contribute to racial disparities in cancer outcomes. This information may potentially contribute to the development of personalized approaches for cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.6–8 Ultimately, it is anticipated that these results will reduce racial disparities in cancer morbidity and mortality. However, progress towards achieving these goals will be severely limited by low rates of African American participation in cancer genetics research.
Participation by African Americans in genetics research has been lower than whites regardless of whether the purpose of the study is to understand genetic factors involved in disease or to provide individualized risk information. For example, the Cancer Genetics Network (CGN) was established by the NCI to conduct collaborative studies on genetic risk factors for cancer. Data from one CGN center demonstrated that African Americans were significantly less likely than whites to enroll in the registry.9 Further, although 80% of non-Hispanic blacks who were enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) provided consent for their DNA to be used in future genetics research, consent rates were significantly lower than those reported in whites.10 African American women were also significantly less likely than white women to participate in a case-control study evaluating gene-environment interactions in breast cancer.11 Similarly, only 49% of African American women participated in pre-test education about genetic testing for BRCA1 mutations that was offered as part of a randomized trial12 and about 30% of African American women at high and moderate risk for having a BRCA1/2 mutation declined to participate in a randomized trial comparing alternate methods of genetic counseling.13
There is a growing body of research on beliefs and attitudes about participation in genetics research. For instance, Bussey-Jones et al. found that subjects who had already enrolled in a cancer genetic epidemiology study were unlikely to spontaneously identify negative outcomes of participation; these concerns emerged only when specifically prompted. 14 In another study with this same cohort, Henderson et al. found that most participants had positive views about genetics research and were willing to participate in future research.15 Recent research has shown that positive attitudes and strong intentions may not translate into similar rates of participation in this cohort and trust is important to the donation of samples for future studies.16 But, trust may not be the only factor that is important to participation decisions. Investigators are required to provide potential subjects with information about the procedures involved in participation and the possible risks and benefits of enrollment so that they can make an informed decision about participating. Several ethical, legal, and social concerns (e.g., privacy, disclosure of results)17–19 have been raised about some types of genetics research; but, it is unknown if these issues would be important to participation decisions among African Americans.
We conducted a qualitative study with a sample of adult African American men and women to identify factors that would be considered when making a decision about participating in cancer genetics research. While attitudes and beliefs about participating in genetics research has been explored in previous studies,15,16,20 these findings may have limited generalizability because they included subjects who had already made a decision to participate in research related to genetics. Our study explores attitudes and beliefs about participating in genetics among African Americans who were not currently engaged in a specific study that was evaluating genetic factors involved in chronic diseases
This research was approved by the Institutional Review Board at the University of Pennsylvania. Participants in this study were adult African American men and women. To be eligible, individuals had to be at least 18 years of age, self-identify as being African American and/or Black, and be able to speak and understand English. Individuals who were currently participating in cancer research and those who had a personal history of cancer were excluded from participation.
Participants were recruited into the study from the Philadelphia metropolitan area through self-referrals from newspaper advertisements that described the study as research that was evaluating how people make decisions about participation in research. Interested individuals were directed to contact the study line for information; individuals who self-referred completed a screening interview after giving verbal consent. Those who were eligible completed a structured survey to obtain sociodemographic characteristics. At the end of the survey, individuals were invited to participate in a focus group and those who accepted the invitation were mailed logistical information about the session.
We conducted seven focus groups ranging in size from 8 to 10 participants that were stratified by gender, age (under age 50 versus 50 and older), and education level (at least high school graduate versus not a high school graduate). After obtaining written informed consent, a semi-structured guide was used to facilitate discussion about participating in cancer genetics research. Specifically, a brief introduction that included a description of cancer genetics research as studies that were being conducted to identify the role that genes play in cancer development was given and then, participants were asked to discuss their attitudes about participating in medical research. We started with this topic because attitudes about participating in cancer genetics research may be a specific manifestation of general attitudes about medical research. As part of this discussion, we specifically asked participants to describe how they would make a decision about participating in cancer research and studies on genetics and cancer genetics using a modified version of the nominal group technique.21 During this component of the session, we asked participants to write down four to five reasons for why they would and would not be willing to participate in a study related to genes and cancer. Each participant described their list and gave reasons for the items on their list. After the group preferences were known, the moderator summarized the ideas that emerged and then asked the participants to rank the top three issues that would be most important to their decision to accept or decline participation in cancer genetics research. This yielded a ranked list of barriers and facilitators to participation. These discussions were audiotaped and transcribed and entered into QSR N6 software for analysis.
Groups were facilitated by the PI (CHH) or senior project manager (BW) and lasted about 2 hours. All focus groups were audio-taped and transcribed verbatim. Participants were given $20 in appreciation for completing the focus groups.
We used grounded theory to identify key themes in the discussion that accompanied the rating task for reasons related to participation in cancer genetics research.22,23 Specifically, we used the constant comparative method to compare themes across groups and to determine relationships among them.24 Focus group transcripts were coded and analyzed by study investigators and trained research assistants using QSR N6 software. Themes that illustrated attitudes about medical research and factors that were important to decisions about participating in cancer genetics research were abstracted from transcripts. To determine the frequency of the identified factors, we itemized responses to three questions that were asked in each group using talk turns.25–27 Talk turns were defined as words spoken by one participant until another participant spoke. Participants were asked to respond to three questions: (1) how would you make a decision about whether or not to participate in a study on cancer? (2) how would you make a decision about whether or not to participate in a study on genetics? and (3) how would you make a decision about whether or not to participate in a study on cancer genetics? In a single talk turn, participants often discussed many factors that were important in making a decision to participate in cancer genetics research. To determine the dominance of each factor, we totaled the number of times it appeared in a talk turn. If a factor appeared more than once in a talk turn, it was only counted once. The prevalence of each factor was reported as the proportion among the total number of talk turns (N=227). Quotes referenced throughout the manuscript are from the responses to the three questions described above.
A total of 91 African Americans participated in the focus groups. There were 50 men (55%) and 41 (45%) women. A little more than half of participants (56%) were high school graduates. The average age of participants was 47 (SD=8.9); 64% were under 50 and 36% were older than 50.
Participants described medical research as a search for a greater understanding and control of diseases using information that is obtained from experiments that may involve blood samples and medications. Participants held complex, and sometimes contradictory, attitudes about medical research. On the one hand, individuals had positive views about research and the potential for the results of studies to benefit them personally and to benefit the African American community. Participants also indicated that research is very important and is necessary to help future generations. Thus, it is not surprising that participants emphasized the importance of African American participation in medical research and suggested that studies should be conducted to specifically address the health issues and concerns in this population. At the same time, however, concerns about trust and exploitation were expressed.
Medical research is a game that the rich man play[s] on the poor man.
Is there a benefit to us or not. Is it gonna be used against us or for us. They have a habit of gathering documentation based on one cultural group… and that could be used as a plus or minus.
Participants questioned whether or not studies were conducted to find a cure for disease or to generate profits. Some participants believed that generating income was the primary motivation for conducting studies among researchers.
… you got to remember something, living in America as a black person, you are dealing with masses of deception. They are not true with a whole lot of things. If it is not profitable they don't do it… all the millions of billions of dollars allocated for years for cancer research and they can't find a cure, but they can go to the moon.
Anybody can misrepresent the facts; shape the facts to represent what they want them to be depending on what they want to get out of it. …it might be the doctor trying to make sure he gets his research grant for next year so he is going to say he is having this outcome… a study just makes it so easy for somebody to manipulate the results for what they want.
We asked participants how they would make a decision to participate in cancer research and research that involves genetics. Several different factors emerged during the discussions about participation decisions. Specifically, barriers that were ranked by study participants included distrust, lack of information about the study, the procedures involved in participation, and the potential to experience negative side effects. As shown in the Table, 14% of the participant discussion related to concerns about exploitation and the extent to which the investigators and study sponsors (e.g., government, pharmaceutical company) were trusted. Participants also expressed apprehension regarding possible side effects and these issues were found in 11% of talk turns (Table).
…but my understanding of the study when I went into it, that they were going to help me, when I finished this study that I would have the proper medicine that I needed for my blood pressure…. I left there with nothing. …. I felt like they used me and didn't do anything for me. I thought the benefit of doing the study was to get me the proper medicine that I needed. But when I finished it I just felt used.
Whoever is giving the study. They might have other motives. They might say they are looking for one thing but they are looking for something else.
I'm scared. Like I might be the one to pass out….sometimes I look in the paper and I think about it and I am like no. I might be the one to get the medicine that gives me side effects or something like that. But I think it is a good thing for the future for the next generation as far as them finding answers.
Participants also indicated that they would consider the information provided about the details of the study (11% of the talk turns, see Table), including being informed about the purpose of the study and the procedures involved in participation, who has access to the data, what would happen to their information once the research was over, and whether or not participants would have access to the results once the study was over. Participants acknowledged that genetics research studies primarily involve minimally invasive procedures (e.g., cheek swabbing, blood draw) and some remarked "there is a lack of risk in participating in genetics… there is no invasive procedures, no blood, no medications." However, some still had concerns about participating in cancer genetics research.
My concern would be what would be done with my DNA. Like after they used their research how would they, what would they do, how would they dispose of it? It would go into a bank. Who would have access to it? Who is it going to? How is going to be used? Is it going to be disposed of? Is it going to be stored for later usage?
Once you start dealing with some of this personal identifier like the blood or DNA. Where does it end up at?
I would say get the real results because a lot of studies that are done I don't feel as though we get the real results.
Participants also emphasized the importance of individuals seeking out information about studies for themselves by researching the researchers to determine who is conducting the study, why the study is being conducted and whether deception is a possibility.
A lot of our people… get misinformation or they don't get any information at all. … we need to step up and get involved in research and find out what's going on with the disease and medication. We need to get out there so that we can take back and give the necessary information back to our people.
I want to make sure when I am signing I really understand because you can sign yourself away to things you don't even realize you did that.
Facilitators of participation that were ranked by study participants included individual and community benefits, the future implications of the results, and the potential to educate oneself. As shown in the Table, the potential benefits of the study were identified as a primary factor in individual's decisions about participating in cancer genetics research accounting for 34% of the participant talk turns. Personal benefits as well as those to the general public and to African Americans were among the factors that participants would consider when making a decision about participating in research, regardless of the focus of the study.
… if I had it then I would definitely want to get into it to see if it would help my disease…That's how a lot of people feel, you know, they don't want to be involved in something that is not involving them.
I would want to know… how does this research going to make this person fighting cancer, how is it going to make their life better?
It is culturally beneficial to African Americans. That has to be a key point in these research studies because… we have a higher rate of high blood pressure, cancer, across the board. I mean if they can focus on what are the determining factors that make us more receptive… but the studies need to focus on us culturally as a people…
Let's be just as healthy as foreigners, white people… Say I want this for my race. I want this for my family, my future family, whatever. So that when they have the studies it won't be white people live 100 years and black people live 75 years… I think that we need to be involved to make that happen.
The potential to gain knowledge about health issues (7%) was also ranked as a facilitator to participation (Table).
Because I believe a lot of what affects our genes is based on environment and… If I personally knew that I was subjecting myself to carcinogenics then I'd change.
I consider myself healthy because of clinical research and genetic research. I learned a lot about my body. Like how to keep my cholesterol down.
Logistical issues (9%) (e.g., financial compensation, the length of study participation) were also described as being important to decisions about participating in cancer research and research that involves genetics, but were discussed to a lesser extent (Table). Issues related to the travel distance to the research facility were described as being a barrier and facilitator.
The purpose of this study was to explore how African Americans would make a decision about participating in studies on cancer and genetics. Since attitudes about participating in these types of studies may be a manifestation of general attitudes about medical research, we also explored these general issues in our sample. Our research sheds new light on some of the factors African Americans may consider when making a decision to participate in cancer genetics research and extends previous research on attitudes about cancer genetics research.15,16
We found that participants had complex and sometimes conflicting views about medical research. Consistent with previous research,15,20 participants in this study held positive attitudes about research and the potential for the results of studies to benefit them personally and to also lead to health benefits for the African American community. Thus, it is not surprising that participants emphasized the importance of African American participation in research and suggested that studies should be conducted to specifically address health issues and concerns in this population. At the same time, however, participants believed that there was the potential for individuals to be exploited and deceived in studies. Some participants questioned the investigator's and sponsor's motives for conducting the study, some were concerned about the potential for the results of study to have a negative impact on African Americans, and others expressed concern about potential for study results to be manipulated. It is possible that these beliefs were based on personal experiences with prior research participation, the experiences of others in studies, knowledge about the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, or lack of knowledge about research process. Previous research has shown that knowledge about the Tuskegee Syphilis Study is significantly more likely to be associated with distrust among African Americans compared to whites.28 But, Tuskegee was not mentioned during the discussion about participation barriers; knowledge about this study was not associated with racial differences in intentions to participate in research.28 Recent work has shown that African Americans are more likely than whites to be distrustful of the healthcare system;29 it could be that distrust is the reason why participants had concerns about exploitation and deception. Individuals who do not feel as if they are valued may easily believe that researchers and others involved in the research enterprise care more about their own personal gain than improving their health. Studies are needed to identify the sources of concerns about exploitation and deception and identify strategies for addressing these beliefs. When asked how they would make a decision to participate in cancer research and studies involving genetics, participants emphasized the importance of many elements that investigators are required to address as part of the informed consent process. In fact, some of the issues that participants raised have been described as barriers (e.g., distrust) to participating in all types of research. But concerns that were specific to genetic research included what would happen to one's DNA and other health information. Previous studies have shown that distrust of healthcare providers is a barrier to participation, but our findings show a concern for misrepresentation of study objectives and the use of their DNA. For instance, participants stressed having details about the study and knowledge of the possible benefits and risks of participation. However, our findings provide more nuanced information about how distrust may act as a participation barrier. These issues accounted for the majority of talk turns about making participation decisions. Recent research has shown that individuals who provide consent for some types of genetics research (e.g., biobanks) understand the purpose of this type of study, are aware of the potential benefits, and know that participation is voluntary; however, the possible risks and the experimental nature of this type of research are understood less.30 Our findings suggest that there may be a more nuanced understanding of informed consent issues for genetic research among African Americans. Many of the factors that participants in our study would consider when making a decision about enrollment were similar to the consent issues in genomic research that are now being debated.31,32 For example, participants reported that they would consider who has access to the study data, what would happen to their information once the study was over, and whether or not results would be provided to them. Similar concerns were reported about the Human Genome Project by minorities33 and African Americans were less willing than whites to provide access to their past medical records as part of biobank research and were also more concerned about protecting their privacy.17 Further, African Americans were less likely than whites to prefer blanket consent for participating in genomic biobanks.34
Considerable attention has been given to informed consent issues in genetics research, especially in studies that involve disclosure of genetic risk information as part of counseling and testing protocols.35 But, new issues are emerging as genomic studies that involve the collection, storage, and in some cases, sharing, of genetic information are being planned17,32 and implemented.30,36,37 For instance, data collected and stored in biobanks may be shared with other investigators for use in studies that were not specified at the time of original consent and withdrawal of samples may be complicated if they were shared with other investigators.31,32 Research has been conducted to evaluate the quality of informed consent for participating in genetic research, but African Americans were under-represented in this research.30 Thus, empirical data are lacking on the extent to which African Americans adequately understand the risks and benefits of participating in this type of research. Our findings suggest that some issues related to the risks (e.g., lack of privacy) and benefits of participating in cancer genetics research are salient to African Americans, but other research has shown that African Americans may not have an adequate understanding of the genetic terminology that may be used in informed consent documents. For instance, only 26% of African Africans in a community-based sample knew what the genome is and 22% knew the number of chromosomes that humans have.38 Literacy is critical to the informed consent process; individuals with low literacy were least likely to understand common medical terms used in prostate cancer education materials to obtain informed consent among African American men.39 Recent reports have emphasized the importance of tailoring the informed consent process for genomic and genetic research among diverse racial and ethnic groups and highlighting the importance of study design, data and biological sample sharing, and the disclosure of study results to participants.32 Future studies should evaluate the relationship between literacy and the quality of informed consent for genetics research among African Americans and decisions about participating.
Overall, the potential benefits to oneself and the African American community accounted for 34% of the participant discussion related to how individuals would make a decision about participating in cancer genetics research. This finding is consistent with the results from a previous qualitative study with a racially diverse sample which found that adults would consider participating in genetics research in order to benefit individuals and society.36 However, in our study, participants often raised concerns as part of discussing the potential benefits of research and participating in studies. Similar results were found in a cohort of individuals who had already provided consent to participate in genetic epidemiology research; participants had generally positive attitudes and beliefs about genetics research, but when prompted, some expressed concerns about these types of studies.14 This process may reflect how individuals are likely to weigh the risks and benefits of participating in cancer genetics research and should be expected and encouraged. Future research is needed to identify the most effective strategies for obtaining informed consent for cancer genetics research among African Americans.
While our study extends previous work on African American participation in medical research14,15,40 by identifying factors that individuals may consider when making decisions about participating in cancer research among an urban sample that had not previously participated in genetics research, it is important to consider some possible limitations such as the small sample and the methods we used to recruit participants. Even though qualitative studies typically enroll a smaller number of participants from a single geographic area using self-referrals, it is important to note that these features may limit the generalizability of our findings. Only a few studies have evaluated attitudes about participating in genetics research specifically in African Americans or included members of this group in sufficient.36,40 It should also be noted that we did not evaluate actual participation in genetics research or donation behaviors, but our study makes a unique contribution by exploring factors that African Americans are likely to consider when making a decision to participate in this type of research. While additional research is needed to identify and understand barriers and facilitators to participating in cancer genetics research in larger samples using qualitative and quantitative methods in geographically diverse samples of African Americans, the results of our study could be used to inform the development of instruments that evaluate the effects of these factors on actual and intended participation.
Understanding the factors that affect decisions about participating in cancer genetics research among African Americans is a critical first step towards developing more effective strategies for recruiting this population into these types of studies. In addition to ensuring that structural factors (e.g., eligibility criteria, recruitment sources) do not limit access to cancer genetics research41,42 and efforts are made to ensure awareness about studies12 among African Americans, recruitment protocols may need to address the concerns that African Americans have about participating in cancer genetics research. Our results show that trust is important to participation decisions, but it is not the only factor that individuals would consider when making a decision to participate in cancer genetics research. It may be useful to develop strategies that address concerns related to how their information will be used in these types of protocols.

Old English Bible translations
|The Bible in English
Main category: Bible translations into English
The Old English Bible translations are the partial translations of the Bible prepared in medieval England into the Old English language. Most of these efforts wound up with the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, when translations into Middle English began.
Many of these translations were in fact glosses, prepared and circulated in connection with the Latin Bible — the Vulgate — that was standard in Western Christianity at the time, for the purpose of assisting clerics whose grasp of Latin was imperfect. Old English literature is remarkable for containing a number of incomplete Bible translations that were not glosses and that were meant to be circulated independently.
Known translations[edit]
- Aldhelm, Bishop of Sherborne and Abbot of Malmesbury (b. 639, d. 25 May 709) is thought to have written an Old English translation of the Psalms, although this is disputed.[according to whom?]
- Cædmon (~657-684) is mentioned by Bede as one who sang poems in Old English based on the Bible stories, but he was not involved in translation per se.
- The Venerable Bede (b. c. 672, d. 26 May 735) produced a translation of the Gospel of John into Old English, which he is said to have prepared shortly before his death. This translation is lost; we know of its existence from Cuthbert of Jarrow's account of Bede's death.[1]
- The Vespasian Psalter,[2] (~850-875) an interlinear gloss of the Book of Psalms in the Mercian dialect.[3]
- Eleven other Anglo-Saxon (and two later) psalters with Old English glosses are known.[4][5] The earliest are probably the early-9th-century red glosses of the Blickling Psalter (Pierpont Morgan Library, M.776).[6][7] The latest Old English gloss is contained in the 12th-century Eadwine Psalter.[8] The Old English material in the Tiberius Psalter of around 1050 includes a continuous interlinear gloss of the psalms.
- King Alfred around 900 had a number of passages of the Bible circulated in the vernacular. These included passages from the Ten Commandments and the Pentateuch, which he prefixed to a code of laws he promulgated around this time. Alfred is also said to have directed the Book of Psalms to have been translated into Old English. Many scholars[who?] believe that the fifty Psalms in Old English that are found in the Paris Psalter [9] represent Alfred's translation.
- Between 950 and 970, Aldred the Scribe added a gloss in the Northumbrian dialect of Old English (the Northumbrian Gloss on the Gospels) to the Lindisfarne Gospels as well as a foreword describing who wrote and decorated it. Its version of The Lord's Prayer is as follows:
- Suae ðonne iuih gie bidde fader urer ðu arð ðu bist in heofnum & in heofnas; sie gehalgad noma ðin; to-cymeð ric ðin. sie willo ðin suae is in heofne & in eorðo. hlaf userne oferwistlic sel us to dæg. & forgef us scylda usra suae uoe forgefon scyldgum usum. & ne inlæd usih in costunge ah gefrig usich from yfle
- At around the same time (~950-970), a priest named Farman wrote a gloss on the Gospel of Matthew that is preserved in a manuscript called the Rushworth Gospels.[10]
- In approximately 990, a full and freestanding version of the four Gospels in idiomatic Old English appeared, in the West Saxon dialect; these are known as the Wessex Gospels. Seven manuscript copies of this translation have survived; they apparently had some currency. This version gives the most familiar Old English version of Matthew 6:9–13, the Lord's Prayer:
- Fæder ure þu þe eart on heofonum, si þin nama gehalgod. To becume þin rice, gewurþe ðin willa, on eorðan swa swa on heofonum. Urne gedæghwamlican hlaf syle us todæg, and forgyf us ure gyltas, swa swa we forgyfað urum gyltendum. And ne gelæd þu us on costnunge, ac alys us of yfele. Soþlice.
- At about the same time as the Wessex Gospels (~990), the priest Ælfric of Eynsham produced an independent translation of the Pentateuch with Joshua and Judges. His translations were used for the Illustrated Old English Hexateuch.
- The Junius manuscript (initially ascribed to Cædmon) was copied about 1000. It includes Biblical material in vernacular verses: Genesis in two versions (Genesis A and Genesis B), Exodus, Daniel, and Christ and Satan, from the apocryphal Gospel of Nicodemus.
End of Old English translations[edit]
In 1066, the Norman Conquest of England marked the beginning of the end of the Old English language and initiated profound changes in its vocabulary. The project of translating the Bible into Old English gradually ended with the movement from Old English to Middle English (though evidence is very scanty), and eventually there were attempts to provide Bible translations in that language.
Later texts[edit]
The three related maunscripts, Royal 1 A. xiv at the British Library, Bodley 441 and Hatton 38 at the Bodleian Library, are written in Old English although produced in the late 12th century. Hatton 38 is noted as being written in the latest Kentish form of West Saxon.[11][12] They cover the four Gospels, with one section (Luke 16.14 - 17.1) missing from both manuscripts, Hatton and Royal.[13]

Philadelphia Area Pug Meetup Group Message Board › Pug Seizures -- HELP??????
|Bonnie M.
Philadelphia, PA
A member of our meetup group contacted me about her sweet pug Gracie having seizures. Gracie has had three now. They are putting her on Pheno Barb. Does anyone on this list have experience with seizures that you might be able to share your experience with your pug. Christine is worried sick about her dear little girl and I'm sure a number of you have had experience with this and can give her some insight as to what to expect.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,
Organizer Philadelphia Pug Meet-up Group

I can't help with seizures in Pugs specifically however, my Schipperke had seizures. First off, I hope the Pug has had (or is having) a full CBC/Blood Chem profile to see if it there is a means of telling why the seizures are occuring. I would also seriously reconsider having annual vaccines done. Rocky's seizures eventually stopped (and his overall health improved 200%) when we stopped with annual vaccines (except for Rabies). She should do her own research on whether or not she feels vaccines or safe or not--it's certainly not for me to make that kind of decision for her. I sure hope they can get the siezures under control and get her off the Phenobarb. I guess time will tell. Best wishes to Gracie!
Philadelphia, PA
I can't speak personally on pug or dog seizures, but I am a hospital pharmacist and I work with neurosurgeons/neurologists and I've dealt personally with seizures in cats. There can be many causes, sometimes, just like in children it can be the result of a high fever due to infection, or as stated above as a reaction to a vaccination (many of you may notice your dogs are warmer than usual and/or sluggish after they get vaccinated). Treatment in animals is usually with phenobarbital or diazepam and just like in people....once they are controlled, you can eventually try to wean them off, but that can take months to years. Just remember to keep talking with your vet, and make sure they are monitoring your pugs' phenobarb level and liver enzymes. Also, if she gets sick (diarrhea, infection) she may be more prone to having a seizure even if previously seizure free on medication. YOU are the best judge of your pet's state of health, so whenever you notice any behavior that is unusual for your dog, call your vet! Good luck with Gracie, I hope she's feeling her usual self soon!
|A former member
I am so sorry to hear about your experience with Gracie's seizures. I do not have my own pug however the family's golden retriever Cody started to get seizures two years ago - the first experience was very frightening to all of us as this 70 lb. dog was throwing himself into things - we learned from the emergency care facility that you never try to hold them when they seize as they are in a state of confusion and behave in a way that may not be in their character. The phenobarb brought a halt to the seizures for about a year and then out of the blue they came back and were more frequent. Two weeks ago he had three in one weekend. We immediately took him to the vet and upped his meds. It breaks your help and there is nothing you can do to help them when it happens - but PLEASE be sure to be aware of any patterns and find a good vet that you can trust - keeps tabs on her liver and as far as I am concerned it is better to be overprotective - I take the dog to the vet for check-ups more than my sister feels it is necessary, but he is the world and I want to make sure I am always doing the right thing. I know that I have not given you any solution, but wanted you to know that this is more common than you may think and there are others out there going through the same heartache when it happens to your own. Best of luck to you and Gracie - give her lots of love!!
|A former member
Thank you so much to everyone who replied and also to Bonnie for posting this up while my computer was out of order. Grace is doing much better. We tried her on the phenobarb and she was on it for about a wekk. The side effects were heartbreaking. She was SO sedated and did not have a personality. I took her for other opinions and she is now on KBR which is potassium bromite. The side effects of the other meds seem to be diminishing although she did have another seizure over the weekend. The seizure she had over the weekend was very quick and the post phase was not as bad either so I am sure that the meds are helping. I called the vet and he suggested to give her a double dose for the next three days and then go back to her regular dose. She is now back to her crazy self. The vet mentioned that changes at home or stress on the owner may have caused this since her bloodwork came back normal. I have been out of work for a month and had back surgery last week so I sometimes wonder if these issues have anything to do with it. Thanks again to everyone and I will keep you posted on how she does. Thanks!
|A former member
After reading this posting about Grace I had to reply since it hit close to home. I also noticed my pug London started having mini like seizures after her first vacination. The vet said it might be sinus related and prescribed medication. However, a few months later it still occurs time to time.
Myself occasionaly experiencing seizures I know how uncomfortable London must feel. I wish the best to you Christine, and Grace.
Best, Erica
|A former member
Thanks Erica. The more people I talk to, the more I realize how common it is. It helps to hear some other dog owners similar situations. I hope your pug does well on the meds.

Seizures run more prevalent in some breeds then others. I do believe the pug is one of them.
|A former member
You are correct. I had no idea that this was such a problem with pugs but it is very common.
|A former member
Hello all, I am glad there is a discussion on this issue. There is info on pub seizures on other sites but I haven't been able to find any real true answers (there is good information out there but not enough).
My pug?s named is Gigi Marcotte and she is almost 13 1/2 years old now as she was born in June 1993. My mother & father adopted her in Christmas of 1996. She is my second pug, my last pug lasted almost 16 years old and it was heart breaking when we lost her.
Gigi has been an inspiration to our family, I can't ever replace her. She is getting older now and health problems are beginning. She still plays and talks to people as she is always happy. I am praised that we found her for adoption as she went through 5 homes until we adopted her.
Gigi has just started having seizures though and this is quiet scary for me. I noticed her first one 6 weeks ago and by now maybe I have seen her have about three. My mother claims she's have about 5 to 10 seizures now. She gets out of breath when she climbs the stairs as she still has the energy and is a real trooper. Her big ordeal is her enlarged heart as this might be the issue with the seizures or not but the vet claims it is a possible heart attack but she is having the seizure symptoms. I don?t believe it is a heart issue but I have to play close attention either way.
Her vet doctor has about almost 40 years experience as we are confident they know what they are doing. I would like to get a second or third opinion as advice or help is always key with our dog.
The things I can say besides her seizures is her legs are weak but at times she can still run and run up the stairs on the second floor (but we stop letting her do that as we witnessed a seizure from her but it could have been a prior walk included). Her sight is going but she still sees and hears excellent besides her sense of smell and eats well. Her spirits are still well and she doesn?t show any sign of pain.
I am still confident my dog will still survive but even so I have to realize she is getting older and I don?t know if the seizures will take her life or no. I would ask if anyone had any information about any medication or remedies for seizures as I do donate to pug shelters every month and donate to pug research too as there is not enough research to find more about pug seizures.

2005 Toyota Sequoia SR5 Rwd 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
We bought it to replace a Honda Odyssey because it was quieter and felt more solid. However, it performs worse, averages 7 MPG less and is not as comfortable or cargo-friendly. It refuses to get over 18 mpg on the highway and averages 13 in town. The socket to slide the 3rd row middle shoulder belt into will not hold it in place, so it dangles from the roof. One of the plastic moldings on the exterior of the rt. rear door came loose for no reason. The power rear window motor burned out and needed to be replaced. The dealer said that was common.(???) The rubber flaps in the front cup holders have torn out so cups aren't held snug. Too many cheap, hard plastic surfaces inside.
Power rear window, reclining 2nd and 3rd row seats, rear A/C controls, auto- off headlights, fog lights, full-size trailer hitch, strong V8, peace of mind that it will get my family to our destination.
3rd row seat that folds flat instead of having to be removed, better fuel management, Transmission that doesn't hesitate, MUCH stronger brakes! Stereo volume control knob that actually works, Aux input for stereo and steering wheel controls, daytime running lights.
My truck rides like a car, at times people outside do not even realize there's a truck behind them, thats how silent the 4.7 Liter V8 (lexus) engine is. Although, I have had problems with the rear window & broken door latch, I really don't care because these thing are simply cosmetic to me. My truck runs, feels and looks great.
Looks, smooth ride, engine response, cargo area and finally knowing that Toyota maintains its value.
Better gas millage
2005 Toyota Sequoia SR5 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
Purchased it two weeks ago. Love it, best SUV I have owned. Fuel mileage could be better but hey it's a SUV. Plenty on interior room, beautiful vehicle on the outside. Very glad I bought it.
Lots of room. Plenty of power.
Better fuel mileage
2005 Toyota Sequoia Limited 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
Bought mine used from a dealer in SC. One owner well maintained! In a day when most folks are cashing in on great mileage vehicles I opt to sell my 4Runner at 21 mpg avg. for a 15 mpg avg. vehicle. Sounds crazy but it is at best a weekend vehicle and vacation SUV. This is what I wanted in the beginning when I bought the 4Runner new which I still love but just lacked the room. It has decent power and drives like my Suburban which is a work vehicle as far as smoothness and comfort. I am a Toyota fan to say the least and have been for 21 years since high school with my 1983 Celica GT which I wish I had back many times. The only thing I can't get to work is the Homelink for my garage.
Leather interior and controls. I like the layout of the vehicle and ease of removing seats (3rd row) that is not needed daily.
Maybe a few more miles per gallon but I won't hold my breath for that future development.
We bought the Sequoia new from the dealership and got an awesome price. We have used it to tow our boat and friends to the lake with no problems. We have 2 kids and plenty of room, barely use the 3rd row. Only had 1 recall on the tailgate hydraulics. We have 45k miles and no hints of any problems. We put the Michelin tires on and much better ride (if possible). I love the comfort as a driver and as a passenger. Plenty of room even in the back passenger seats. We hauled 8 volleyball players to a long distance tournament and no space complaints. I love this model but I am not happy to see the 2009 look. Looks too much like a Durango. Hopefully when we need a new one they will look different!
Smooth ride, plenty of space, towing capacity. Much more sleek design than the Tahoe and Yukon's which is great when you are trying to park it in tight spaces
Better design on the fold down 3rd row. Heavy and sometimes hard to remove the seats.
